So basically it’s a 30 inch Triax. I guess I’ll keep my Triax. I thought they were going to get away from the whole Halon series this year! I love my Triax. Best bow I ever owned
You said it’s a 30” triax and then you said it’s a Halon series bow (makes no sense). You’re basing these opinions on looks. If the riser was milled differently you’d think it’s an entirely new bow. The fact is, it’s a Vertix. It’s got DNA from all of Mathews prior bows. Deal with it!
I’m pushing 60 and almost didn’t buy this bow because of the weight that would have been a mistake. It shoots so much better than the carbon bow I gave up. I’ll manage the extra 1.4lbs.
After about a week you'll get used to the weight and won't really notice it while shooting I agree with carbon I can't really hold them as good as the aluminum riser's but for hunting yardage like 50 and under I shoot them just as good but prefer the aluminum more and like the looks better also
That Switchweight deal is really cool. As long as the modules aren’t stupid expensive it will probably will help resell too as you won’t have to worry as much about finding a bow in the weight you want. Now if they would just stick all this tech on. 34-35”ATA bow that will go out to a 31.5-32” DL.
If I bought a 65lb vertix and I’m the future wanted to shoot at 70lb is it recommended to put on a 70lb module. Can you go up and down in poundage with module?
It’s funny how many reviews there are for this product on CZcams. Let’s face it bows from 20 years ago kill just as well. My buddy shot 2 bucks with a old bear compound bow with metal shaft arrows. Both were harvested and brought home. Although it’s nice to have new things they are not really necessary. Learning to shoot correctly is more important than a new bow. I got a Nothing against this particular video.
I tired this bow at 70lbs and it felt like I was shooting a wet noodle. This bow is obviously not for me, but people who are curious into buy this bow I would highly suggest trying out other brands before dropping 1k on this.
C Price Yeah I don't hunt very far off grid but I appreciate a more nimble feeling bow. Most of the flagship bows from the more common brands are over 4#. I don't get it🤔
@@Buran01 we understand that. But I'm hunting, shooting one shot. It's like hunting with a 45-70. I know it's gonna kick but who cares, I'm not target practicing with it.
Buran01 Yeah I do understand that concept. However, I've shot some bows between 3.5-3.9# that were as shock-free and quiet as any I've shot. Hoyt Carbon Spyder, PSE Bow Madness 34 and Strother SR71. Then take, for example, the Prime Logic and the Hoyt Hyperforce, very heavy bows but both loud and vibrate in the hand and still weigh a ton. If all the "theoretical features" that we pay for aren't actually helping practical "shootability" then it's a rip-off.
Please let me know what brand stand that is, is it pine ridge? bought something and it didn't fit the limbs on my vertix so i want to buy the correct one this time.
I heard that with these bows today, there so advanced that even if u have a 60-70 and shoot 62-63. The bow will do just fine but that’s just what I heard. By all means I’m no professional
You should look in to the Mission line of bows made by Mathews. Great, lightweight bows that can come fully loaded with a rest, sight, and stabilizer. Just a really high quality bow for an affordable price. You can check out our review here: czcams.com/video/6Q2jG4v8IiE/video.html
That's the older style universal gun barrel/scope mount. It's been replaced with an upgraded version that looks a little different but works just the same.
You should sell your triax and get a treverse I guarantee you will like it as much or more then the halon 32 it Ballances much better and not top heavy at all like previous versions it's like a Target bow for hunting it's incredible
I don't give a shit about mods to change weight. I'll buy a 70 pound bow and if I want it 60 pounds, I'll just rotate the limb bolts. People who say that turning the weight down is not as efficient is bullshit. I checked the 70 lb turned down to 60 vs a 60 bow and they shot the same speed. What I want is a rotating mod to change draw lengths. Who the hell wants to buy new mod at 50 to 80 dollars a pop? And this deal on the dovetail for the rest, yeah $250 for a rest that I can buy on amazon for under 100 dollars without the dovetail, no thanks Mathews.
Hoytshooter 1990, I got a deal from my local pro shop. The owner sold me his Halon 32 that he “never shot” with all kinds of goodies on it for way less then I could get just the bow for. So long story short, I have a Halon 32 and my wife is still mad I bought another bow... lol
@@OutdoorsmenLee At Hoyt or PSE, if you don't mint to pay 600 extra bucks. Also, what happened with upper strength those days? That bow with rest and sight and quiver would barely touch the 3 Kg mark, doesn't being a keyboard warrior train your arms to hold less than 7 pounds? Ezzz....
@@Buran01 so I'm a keyboard warrior because I asked for a carbon Mathews bow? I have the Halon and I love it, but it gets heavy when you are hiking through the woods for 2 miles. I guess my keyboard warrior fingers are much better suited for holding the bow back and releasing. It also helps with gutting and skinning. I'm sure you already know this yourself.
@@OutdoorsmenLee Weigth has its own advantages, as absorbing vibrations; I doubt Mathews will start a carbon riser facility just to save 300 grams. There's only a couple of carbon bows in the market (PSE's Stealth, Hoyt's RX-3... ) and seems than neither Prime or Mathews are in a hurry to bring up that fad. Hell, PSE isn't even changing the Stealth this yea, and Bowtech, with has some carbon models at weights and prices well below Hyt isn't using the knight frame as the base for their flgship bows (Realm). If those brands aren't moving to carbon is due carbon bows from the competence aren't making a dent in they share. Buy a Carbon Icon if weight is as important to you.
Mathews new 3 -D hunting bow for 2020 ,,,,,,,,,,,, ATA, - 36, just stretch the Triax , same everything , 4.2# total bow ,,,,, now that would be a kicken bow,,,,,,, maybe a carbon riser ???
Maybe for some folks it will be - but 5" brace height is pretty aggressive and unforgiving. It's also only available in draw lengths out to 29.5" so the long draw folks are out of luck.
Mathews really flopped this year... halon halon32 ... guess they shouldn’t have made all the hype about a triax 30 lol Update: just went and shot one.. in my opinion the triax is much better
What? That's the peak of their hunting bows, barely cost 11 hundreds, they didn't even touch the price despite improvements over the last year Triax. Then you'll get a heart attack if you check the prices of the competence, lol.
@@jasonnester9514 Most modern compound bows are very advanced; I'm sure that you could get very functional ones at very low prices in the second hand market, losing only a small fraction of the performance which deliver the latest ones. Nothing wrong with that. This is not like smartphones in which a 5 or 10 year old model becomes obsolete.
Mathews is a joke, the guys say every year this is the best bla bla, few months later same song and dance. Seems like the development team throw sh!t at the walls to see what's sticks, riser lengths back and forth, over sized cams, that at full draw make the bow taller than 28'.. a joke for your money.
If we thought this was basically the same bow as last year, the video would've been much shorter! The ata is a bit longer, obviously not a big deal, but it's nice to have a little more length to the bow. The Switchweight is great. Adjusting draw weight and letoff is way easier now. And the grip is improved. Feels great in the hand when shooting.
Quietist bow, most accurate, award winning, dead in the hand... blah, blah, blah... gimmick after gimmick. All these youtube reviewers care about is views and kissing manufacturers asses so they get free merch. Thanks for regurgitating the Matthews website pal! Nice “review”
I can only talk about the online reviews, but saw a lot of videos about the Triax and the Vertix and the competition from last year to now and so far is the bow which makes least noise in all those reviews, and seems that everyone agrees that Triax isn't the fastest bow, the lightest one or the one with the smoother draw cycle, but is by far the quietest of all of them 8until the Vertix).
I could watch your reviews all day long Justin, Quick smooth and to the point. 10/10 professionalism and you answered all my questions. Thank you!
Must admit I never liked mathews bows but man these past few years they have been killing it
Reaper for you whis bow is better?
@@manoloramirez6456 I have always shot hoyt but the after the z5 cams they haven't improved in my opinion.
Ok bro

Best review so far. You answered questions nobody else doing these reviews has answered. Thank you.
Still in love with my Mathews no-cam HTR
Matthew Hughes best bow mate! I handed mine over to a friend in Namibia and got a Hoyt HyperForce. Still regretting it...
me too bro
got this bow a week after it came out, it is awesome. so comfortable to shoot and so quiet.
I'm in love with my vertix.smooth and quiet.I shoot it better than any bow I have owned
So basically it’s a 30 inch Triax. I guess I’ll keep my Triax. I thought they were going to get away from the whole Halon series this year!

Bad Ass bow. This may be my next bow. Would be nice to see a limb driven rest that mounts to the rail.
I like the videos best when its just you talking. Great Review! Professional and to the point.

Check out the new Traverse - it a 33" ATA bow with 6 5/8" brace height that goes out to 32.5". Although it doesn't have the SwitchWeight modules...
Bowhunting.com oh don’t tell me that. I wasn’t planning on a new bow this year.

The Traverse is a superior bow in every way. Its a Halon 32 but perfected.
Have to agree with you
Hey my bow!
Hoy en día se venden los últimos arcos mathews vertix!!.Son igual de buenos, que los modelos halon 6 y otros modermos de caza?
The change over is coming
BHOD BABY!!!!!!!!!!!
I have the triax and shot the vertix today. Believe it or not its smoother and had a better back wall believe it or not
What tactocam are you using? I am looking at the Triax and Vertix any recommendations? I think they are about the same bow.
That bow is clean
I tired this bow at 70lbs and it felt like I was shooting a wet noodle. This bow is obviously not for me, but people who are curious into buy this bow I would highly suggest trying out other brands before dropping 1k on this.
got some organized target panic going @ 0:31!
What strings are those? Mathews? What color combo is that?
They're ABB Strings, color combo is quick silver/flo yellow with clear servings.
Who built that string set for you? Looks great!
I hope they bring back the lost Camo XD next year.
Hi man ? Is the mathews vertix better than the v329
I'm disappointed, I had the Triax and loved it but was really hoping they would come out with a lightweight bow this year. Like for sure a sub-4# bow.
I'm with u on that. Over 4#s is a lot when u hunt far off the grid like I do
C Price Yeah I don't hunt very far off grid but I appreciate a more nimble feeling bow. Most of the flagship bows from the more common brands are over 4#. I don't get it🤔
More weight helps to improve the quietness and deadness of the bows.

Specs include draw length also Dustin......
OK, I just ordered Vertix with a Barren riser & Black limbs, HHA sights and drop away..
Just can't decide on 80 or 85% Let Off???
Please let me know what brand stand that is, is it pine ridge? bought something and it didn't fit the limbs on my vertix so i want to buy the correct one this time.
Yep, it's a Pine Ridge Kwikstand.
Will the grip fit other Mathews bows?
Unfortunately no, it will not.
That's alot of weight for a 30in bow i would say that is a main factor for the quietness
I wonder is that engage grip will fit the Triax?

Triax or Vertix? I have a triax

What is that mount you have for the Tactacam?
That's the older style universal gun barrel/scope mount. It's been replaced with an upgraded version that looks a little different but works just the same.
Wack... Halon 32 was the best bow to date. Ans I sold mine git the traix and wish I just stuck with the 32
The original Halons the best. 30 axle. But I do like the idea of maxing out at 65 though
You should sell your triax and get a treverse I guarantee you will like it as much or more then the halon 32 it Ballances much better and not top heavy at all like previous versions it's like a Target bow for hunting it's incredible
I thought the engineer was going to make another type of bow better than that
Does the vertix come with extra weight modes?
Not included with the bow - you can purchase them separately.
